I walked into Pure Salon with a not so great cut from "somewhere else " and walked out with a great cut and stylish look. Recently relocated from Rivervale, to Westwood Ave in Westwood. Kevin the owner,knows not only how to work a good cut but is also well versed in the integrity of your hair and what products will and will not work for your hair type. I will be going back for color soon as I learned color is actually his specialty!!! read more

I've been coming to Kevin for over 10 years. Since his move to Westwood, he's implemented a new policy requiring you leave a credit card on file so that if you can't make your appointment, you're charged the full amount. I missed my first appointment in 10 years and he would not reverse the charge or budge even though I was able to get an appointment the very next day. It's not like he's booked weeks out for a men's hair cut that takes him 20 minutes. I was furious when he wouldn't relent, then his wife comes over for the tag team. I remained calm but I was fuming. I guess loyalty only goes one way. I hope the $40 was worth losing a client over, Kevin, although you didn't seem to care. "I bet you won't let that happen again" who are you my father? Best wishes. read more

Peggy has been doing my hair for years and I always walk out of her salon looking like I've spent $500! She is an amazingly talented stylist. As a nurse I have to mention that they are exceeding the CDC guidelines for sanitizing the salon between clients. I thought it was clean before but now it's as clean as a sterilized operating room! If you haven't visited this salon yet, make an appointment ASAP. You won't be disappointed and you'll wish you had found them sooner! read more

I went in today for ombré coloring and a trim with Meghann. First off, it was a very comfortable and cozy environment with friendly and knowledgeable staff. There are only 4 hairdressers, so each one knew what they were doing. I booked last minute and they were willing to accommodate me, which I really appreciate. Meghann made me feel comfortable right away --very sweet and with a great sense of humor! When I told her the gist of what I wanted, her artistic prowess took over and she knew exactly what to do and how to execute. I felt safe in her hands, which says a lot for someone like myself.. Loved my color, cut, styling and the advice she gave me on hair upkeep. I will definitely be returning. read more

See all

Fabulous atmosphere, great service! I always leave happy with my haircut thanks to Kevin :)

I have been going to Pure for a few years. Peggy, the owner, has always done my hair and Morgan washes it. During the pandemic, I was looking forward to getting my hair done when they finally reopened. A few months ago, I received a text from them asking if I wanted an at-home color kit to do my hair myself. In the text, they spelled my name wrong. It's not Irene, it's Ilene. That's very disrespectful. I didn't appreciate my name being misspelled when I'm a regular customer. When they were planning to reopen, I made an appointment. Peggy told me everyone has to sign a contract stating that they will follow the COVID protocols, including wearing a mask. She emailed me the contract to sign digitally, which mentioned a $3 "cleaning supply" fee to cover the cost of all the cleaning products used to sanitize the salon. This fee wasn't mentioned prior. It's wrong to place the cost on clients- it's your business, you should buy what you need to clean the place! Seems like an excuse to profit off of the pandemic. I signed the contract. Peggy later texted me telling me she was having issues opening it and could I print it out and bring it in? Um, no. My printer was broken but should why I, the client, be inconvenienced to print out YOUR contract using my ink and paper? If you're having such technical issues opening a simple contract, maybe you should buy a new computer... or someone who knows how to work it. I said I would sign it when I got there, which is what I did. I got a single process and trim. My hair was washed by Morgan. Normally, they double shampoo, condition and give a head massage. All I got was a single shampoo. No conditioner. No head massage. Nothing. She charged me $75 for the color plus an extra $10 for the "extra color" needed on my hair. Do they charge someone who is fully gray $100 more because they have more hair that needs to colored? How ridiculous. She charged me $50 for a trim that she spent literally 30 seconds on. She put NO product in my hair. This is beyond taking advantage- normally my wash, cut and blow dry is $70. I barely got a wash and only had a trim, not a cut. She offered me two samples of a product to try, which I took with me. This was only after I expressed interest in purchasing a product which she was sold out of. A couple days later, I went to use the samples and BOTH of them were empty. No product in them whatsoever. It seems like she emptied them out before giving them to me because she brought them from the back of the salon. And SHE gave these two to me, I didn't randomly choose samples in her bucket. I texted Peggy to let her know they were empty and she apologized, acting so surprised. She claims she's out of samples (even though she had an entire bucket of samples 2 business days ago) and didn't even offer to get me another. This was done on purpose, no matter how many times Peggy says "Oh I had noooo idea so sorry!" You might play dumb by claiming you didn't know the samples you gave me were empty but you're really dumb to think I would buy it. I don't play your immature games. Pure only has "clients" because of Peggy's snobby friends who have nothing to do but get their hair done and complain about their rich husbands. She doesn't treat everyone equally and sees you as just a dollar sign. All of the positive reviews are from her friends I'm sure. She is constantly checking her phone while working on your hair, which is beyond rude. Their business practices are shady. I don't appreciate being lied to. Clients are not valued here. This salon is a wannabe but will never be. Take your business elsewhere. read more

I was so excited for my hair appointment and Pure Hair Studio did not disappoint! Peggy made me feel safe and relaxed with all the new health procedures in place. She worked her usual magic and brought my hair back to life after not being able to go to the salon for 4 months. Morgan was wonderful as always washing my hair. The whole staff just makes you felel so welcome and comfortable in these crazy times. My 2 hour drive is always well worth it Peggy and Kevin are amazing. I won't let anyone else touch my hair even though I moved all the way to South Jersey. Peggy also did a gorgeous bayalage on my daughter which she absolutely loves. Thank you Peggy and Staff for making us feel fabulous again read more

I had not had my hair done is WAY too long when I visited Pure Hair Studio for the first time. I moved to New Jersey from the west coast and having a hair stylist in California who I adored, I was in denial about the fact that I would eventually have to find a salon in New Jersey. Now, I wish I had not waited so long! This salon is wonderful. It had been so long, that I had a bunch of split ends and a natural (unintentional) Ombre. (See before and after photo, although you get the picture, I don't think it quite does it justice). I called last-minute, spoke with Peggy (who was so sweet) and they worked me in the next day. My hair stylist in CA had given me the formula for the Aveda colors she used on me and Kevin literally sat down with me and spent a good 15-20 minutes going over the colors, discussing what we should do, my options, etc. I never once felt rushed, and he really listened to what I wanted. He did exactly what we discussed and I left with an AMAZING cut and color. Everyone at this salon is SO nice and genuine. Everyone gets along and jokes with each other, and they are like one big family. Every client that came in was greeted warmly and they all had close relationships with the stylists. I recommend this salon to anyone. I know firsthand how difficult it is to go to a new place, but you will not be disappointed if you go here. It is a good, honest, locally-owned business with friendly, very talented people. I do not have a single negative thing to say about Pure Hair Studio. They are amazing!! read more

Found Pure Hair Studio on Groupon and been wanting the ombre look forever and when I came in, Shanna listened to what I was going for in terms of cut and color and absolutely nailed it! Used to have dark brown hair all around, and she gave me the "Kate Beckingsale" lol. Had a really great time and Shanna was absolutely amazing in terms of friendliness and professionalism. Thank you so much!! read more

I get my hair done by Elise and she is AMAZING!! She is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Her cuts come out perfect and the blowouts are even better. read more

Peggy did an amazing job on my hair. She listened to exactly what I wanted- which was blonde but not too blonde. She took her time to blow it out and show me the color. I enjoyed chit chatting with Peggy while she perfected every inch of my hair. Best hair color and hair cut of all time!!! read more

Peggy and Kevin are seriously the most amazing hair artists. I have had bad salon experiences in the past which led me to doing my own hair. 5 years later I found Pure Salon and they were amazing. But only was my cut and color gorgeous, I now have my natural curls back. I would recommend Pure to everyone!!! read more

Peggy is the first stylist I have met who has cut my 3B curl patterned hair perfectly without having to drive into the city to pay a ridiculous amount of money for a curl specialist to do my hair in Manhattan. Peggy is friendly, funny, and SKILLED. I am hard to please when it comes to my hair, but Peggy knew exactly what she was doing and I could not have been happier. I have already made another appointment with her. read more

I love Stephanie! She is compassionate about her art and truly loves what she does. She's super relatable, easy to talk to and very talented. The only thing I would say the salon could work on is their prices for clients who are getting multiple treatments at a time. For the amount I spent, my blowout should be complimentary. read more

I recently brought my daughter to Pure Hair Studio for some highlights. Peggy is not only extremely friendly, but incredibly professional. The highlights she did were perfect, and she even freehanded some which she told me was called a balayage. My daughter has been getting so many compliments on her hair! Peggy as well as the other hairdressers are amazing at what they do, and it is always a relaxing experience. read more
